This conference marks the completion of a four-year international research project, THOUGHT AS ACTION: Gender, Democracy, Freedom, funded by the Norwegian Research Council. The project has had a theoretical focus, organized around three major themes: ”Bodies and Sexualities”, ”Citizenship” and ”New Technologies”, themes that will also serve as an overarching structure for the conference. The program will consist of plenary sessions with keynote addresses as well as parallel sessions that will be organized around the three theme clusters, to which we will devote one day each. We invite scholars to submit abstracts for papers that will touch upon at least one of the theme clusters. Empirically based papers will be welcomed, provided that they touch upon theoretical questions.
